European Exascale Processor & Memory Node Design

Why do we need ever faster computing?

High performance computing (HPC) is an important tool for science, industry and decision making. Today’s fastest computers are already incredibly powerful, yet many scientific and industrial challenges demand still more computing power, for instance climate research, drug discovery and material design. Learn why we need ever faster (“Exascale”) computing, what are the difficulties faced by designing such large computers, and how ExaNoDe contributes to this design.

ExaNoDe will develop an integrated prototype deploying technology building blocks designed to contribute to the EU drive towards exascale computing. It employs a low-power architecture and advanced nanotechnologies to realise high-performance, high-density computing.

The heterogeneous Multi-Chip-Module (MCM) builds on the following key components:
